    Description

    Equine Therapy - New Volunteer Training

    Are you passionate about working with children or animals? Do you find fulfillment in helping others? Join us at our New Volunteer Training Saturday, December 7th, from 10:00-12:00 at the Partners for Progress facility. Email volunteer@partnersforprogressnfp.org to sign up for our training!

    At Partners for Progress, becoming a volunteer means more than just helping-it’s about becoming part of a life-changing journey for children with special needs. Imagine the joy of seeing a child light up as they bond with one of our therapy horses, or the fulfillment of knowing your time is making a profound difference in their physical, emotional, and mental growth.

    In giving back, you’ll also gain. Being around these incredible children and beautiful horses teaches patience, empathy, and the value of community. In a world that often feels disconnected, volunteering here helps you reconnect with what truly matters-compassion, understanding, and making a lasting impact.

    Whether you're 18 or 80, your presence is needed and appreciated, and you’ll leave each day knowing you've made a difference. Join us at PFP and be part of something extraordinary!
